The

pf_stat

utility displays information using column headings that conform

to SMT revision 7.3, which differ from SMT revision 5.1 and 4.2 headings in the
following cases:

The ECM heading corresponds to the 5.1 MIM heading.

The RMT heading does not have an analog in SMT revision 4.2. If you run
SunFDDI/P at revision level 4.2, ignore any data displayed under the RMT
heading of

pf_stat

.

Displaying Local Interface Statistics

When you enter the

pf_stat

command without the

-m

option, it displays

statistics recovered from the local interface

pf

.

For example, to display the accumulated statistics for the interface

pf0

, type:

You can also monitor the interface dynamically (active monitor), by specifying
the interval (the elapsed time between interrogations) and count (the total
number of interrogations). This displays the incremental difference between
the current state and the previous state. The minimum interval is one second
and the accumulated statistics are displayed after every tenth interrogation.

For example, to monitor the interface

pf0

once every 60 seconds for 3 minutes

(a total of 3 interrogations), type:
